Chapter 1380 Shu Yu's Doubts
Seeing how skilled she was, Shu Yu couldn't help but rub her forehead.
So that's how they are when they're out together.
Master Tan immediately said, "If it's convenient for you, Master Zhao, please take another look at my son. I'll leave him in your care."
It was Ah Ning who spoke again, "My master's method is quite outrageous; he wants to fight poison with poison. Do you dare?"
A hint of hesitation flashed across Mr. Tan's face, but he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Zhao, please come in."
A Ning nodded. "Alright, you agreed to it yourself."
The little girl jumped in front of Doctor Zhao. "Master, he agreed. He seems very sincere. Let's not argue with him. That young master Tan looks like he's having a hard time. Let's get him cured as soon as possible so we can go home. I miss my little nephew."
The little nephew she mentioned is the child in Shuyou's belly. The little girl now loves to lie next to Shuyou and talk to her belly.
Old Doctor Zhao had originally intended to put on airs, but upon hearing him bring it up, he became much more decisive. After all, he was his grand-disciple, and he was quite interested as well.
He nodded and said to Master Tan, "Lead the way."
Mr. Tan breathed a sigh of relief. "Mr. Zhao, this way please."
Mrs. Tan stood in the main room, watching the figure walk away into the distance. She opened her mouth, then gritted her teeth and decided to take the gamble this time.
She turned to Shu Yu and said, "Lu Xiangjun, please come inside for tea as well."
The group then headed back to the backyard. Young Master Tan needed to recuperate, so his courtyard was located in a quiet place not far from the front yard.
It's hot outside, but once you enter Young Master Tan's courtyard, it feels quite cool.
Shu Yu followed Dr. Zhao into the room and took a look. Young Master Tan really did look terminally ill. He was so thin that he was unrecognizable, and it was impossible to tell his exact age.
Old Zhao sat down on the edge of the bed again and took Young Master Tan's pulse.
Mr. Tan waited anxiously, but Mr. Zhao's answer was the same as before: "It is indeed poisoning. If it is not treated now, it will be too late to save him in three months."
Mr. Tan's hand trembled, and Mrs. Tan hurriedly said, "But I've noticed that he seems to be in better spirits these past few days, and the doctor in the manor also said that his condition has improved. How could he have died after three months..."
Old Zhao glanced at her sideways, "You know what a final burst of energy is, right?"
Mrs. Tan's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry.
After calming down a bit, Mr. Tan took a deep breath and pleaded, "Please, Mr. Zhao, save my son's life."
"Saving his life is no problem, but the process will be painful. And I must make it clear to you beforehand that your son has been poisoned with a slow-acting poison. He was poisoned two years ago and is still being poisoned now."
Master Tan wasn't stupid; upon hearing this, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he instantly understood.
The fact that the person poisoned his son daily with a slow-acting poison suggests that this person was someone who served him.
His expression darkened, and he immediately turned to his trusted attendants, saying, "Find someone to guard everyone inside and outside this courtyard. From now on, make sure the front and back gates of the mansion are completely sealed off, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."
"Yes." The attendant knew the seriousness of the matter and went to get to work without saying another word.
Shu Yu, standing behind, frowned slightly. Another slow poison?
She couldn't help but glance at Young Master Tan again; his thin appearance really did resemble Xiao Shi's.
Is there any connection between these two things?
